The President of the United States, in his annual message to Congress, recommends and urges the immediate passage of a meas ure known as the Lodge election bill which involves a radical revo lution in the election machinery of this Union, both State and Na tional, and its passage will be fa- j tal to the autonomy of the States and to the cherished liberties of tho citizens; and we most solemn ly protest against the passage of the said election bill and we most earnestly petition our Senators in Congress to employ all fair and loyal means to defeat this unpat riotic measure, which can result in nothing but evil to our common and beloved country. National Alliance Resolution, passed at Oeala. Prof. Haun boasts of not hav ing voted for about iiO years. Yet lie is going around teaching the people their duties as citizens ! He kicked out of the Democratic party years and years ago ; he kicked out of his church, and a year ago he kicked out of the count' Alliance because it would not take certain political action and now he is going over the country kicking up a dust in gen eral, and misleading the people and causing neighbor to be aMen ated from neighbor, by teaching the credulous his Weaverism. I'rof. Hahu is an appropriate fol lower of Weaver. Weaver has been iu 3 or 4 more parties than Hahu. but friend Hahn will get even if he is given time. the b umoiTuati o BANXER. WLiie the committees were pre paring their reports last Saturday, a motion was carried that previous to the next Democratic rally a no tico should be issued through the Courier statiug that the Banner now in possession of Howard's Creek, would be awarded to the township that would famish the largest number in horseback pro cession iu proportion to Democratic strength. PJaus are already under consider ation for that occasion. The time will, perhaps be in October. A bald head is unnatural and un necessary. Hali'a Hair Renewer will prevtut it. The county Democratic conven tion, report of which, fnniished by the fitcictary, is published in an other column, waa very enthusiastic and harmonious. The court house was scarcely sufficient to seat the delegates, and heuce those not del c-gates were almost all deprived of seats. Upon the countenance of e very member's face was depicted pure, untainted and un terrified Democracy. In that convention last Saturday and in what followed it, there was a determination in every look, a boldness in every ord, a positiveness in overy action, an enthusiasm in every shout that portrayed to the epectator in marks of unmistakable clearness that the people of Lincoln county were de termined not to allow to trail in the dust the banner of true, puee, and ETERNAL DEMOCRACY. Third party men were astonished at what they saw. Many had heard that i he Democratic party was about dead ; and when they Haw the multitude ot people rallying around the banner and when they beheld ihe enthusiasm displayed, they i-ould scarcely believe their own ryes. Not only have mauy been deceived as to the truo issues aud t rue principles but also as to uumn 'ern. Why, readers, there is a cer lain little section in Howard's Creek township, where the Third party ellows think that they are THE people, the whole people and that heieare no other people besides Hut when it conies to conuting votes, Howards Creek will, we be lieve, show the Third party fellows that after all they are not "the People." It will be, we believe, in sect io us like that as it was iu the State of Alabama. The Third party thought it would sweep everything before it, and lo and behold, the democrats weut in with a sweeping majority ! IKONTOX DEMOCRACY. In solidity, like the irou v nought out ot its soil ; iu purity, like gold ; in activity, like quicksilver; and in promptness, like a well drilled sols diery, is the Democracy of Ronton j township. With bat afewdajs j notice the Democrats of that town tfhip rallied themselves together aud came uplabt Satuiday on horseback and in carriages and other ve hickles. In addition to over 100 voters they C;ime with about 30 boys in uniforms, whose young hearts beat with joy aud whose voices rang out iu clear tones as tbey cheeied for the cause of pure Southern Democracy. Three cheers or the old aud the young Democ r acy of lronton. MOM 12 Y HAS LfitP EI FROM THE FENCE. Snapp, N C Aug 1st 1892 Mr Ed Lincoln Curier Dear sir After waiting long and pitiently to see what our Dem' ccratic house of representatives with a clear Majoiity of 148 would co lor the burdened and oppressed people ; and after finding that they have not only done nothing worthy cf notice but to kill the silver bill passed by the Republican senate I Lrtve concluded to cast my lot with the People and the Peoples' parly. Now as your friends ami mine want ed to know where I stood, you can toll them that I stood a long time uaiting, aud new I stand with the Peoples party. They (the Demo crats) may fooll all the people part cf the time or a part of the people all tne time, but ttey cannot fool alt the people all the time. If it 8nits vour fancy you can give this a place iu your col urns yours truly Moses Stroup Tb6 Democrats of Gaston can now breathe easy. What Mr. Stroup has beeu votiug with heretofore he has not said. Now he has decided to vote with the "people." We in fer that he has heretofore votd with some other kind of animals I Mr, Stroup has been "waiting.'' We suppose he has been waiting for Confess to coin out that 50 per capita and send the amount around to each member of his family. What Mr, Stroup is expecting from the past Congress we know not. He says he has decided to vote with the "people's" party since the silver bill was killed. The Cotjei ER repotted hm wih the Third party six months ago, before Con. gress had a hack at the bid referred to, Prof. Hahn made a proposition to that effect aud Mr. Stroup voted for it, and if Congress had passed a bill for the freest kind of silver ims agioable, Mr. Stroup would to-day be in the Third patty, witli some other excuse. The fact is, Mr. Stroup has been with the Third party ever since the Courier had him on that eide, but he has been "waiting" for an excuse aud he itn agiues that he lias found one at last ! When he voted eudorsing the Third party platform, he knew he was leaviug the Democratic party. So far as the Courieb was concerned, it knew where he stood last spriiiv People would have more respect for a Third party fellow if be would quit hatching up as his excuse some thing that the Democrats may have done after be had already fallen in with the Third party. Prof. Hahu had been making Third part speeches and trying to orgauize organize Thud party forces before the action constituting the basis ot Mr. Stroup'a excuao waa ever taken by Congress. No sir, dear reader, all these excuses you hear these Third party fellows make are morv est bosh. The fact is they have listened to these lecturers aud writ ers abusing the Democratic party, until they are prejudiced beyond recognition, aud no matter what the Democratic party might do they would be agaiust it. However, Mr. Stroup is a clever sociable fellow, but politically he is no loss to any party. NOTlvS OX SATURDAY'S EVEXTN. When the procession was pass ing the residence of Mr. T. II. Hoke, Mrs. Hoke came out with two beautiful bouquets for the speakers. Mr. Hoke is sick and was unable to be out. A number of ladies handed flowers in to car riages as the parade moved along. It was a point worthy of remark to see so many venerable old cit izens rejoicing at the demonstra tion of last Saturday. If this new Third partyism is the Democracy of our fathers, why do these old veterans cling so enthusiastically to the Democratic party? Another point that gives pleas ure to all who love peace and or der is notable, and that is that there was not one particle of dis turbance during the whole day. There was a unity of thought, an honestly of purpose, and a har mony of action in every thing that was done. The Charlotte naval batillion band furnished some excellent music for the occasion. We have heard numerons compliments on the music. The display of flags in the pro cession was a very beautiful fea ture. Handkerchiefs and flags were waved at the procession by ladies of almost every residence. - Progress. In has not been 40 years since Webster was at his best in the U. S-Senate. In 1852 Clay, Calhoun and Webster passed away from the coutpiuuous places of our country aud the lamentations were great. But even so eminent a man as Web' sier said in the Senate wheu a bill was up to open a mail route from Independence Mo., to the mouth of the Columbia river : "What do we want with this worthless area? This legion of savages and wild beasrs, ot deseits of shiftiug sands and whirlwinds of dust, of cactus, and prairie dogs? To wbat use could we ever hope to put these great deserts, or endless mountain ranges impenetrable and covered to their very base with perpetual snow ? Wbat can we ever hope to do with the Western coasf, a coast 3,000 miles, rocksbound, cheerless, uuin viting and not a harbor on it? What use have we for this country?" So the greatest of New Eng land Statesmen spoke not a half ceutury ago. But westward enter prise has gone and the people have covered this vast domain and travel over the praries and around the mountaius 3,000 miles to the magi nificeut Columbia river aud luxurate in the flower gardens. The now ceutral State of this nat'on covers a portion of this region Kansas, and has a school for every 186 of her inhabitants, a Sunday School for every 420, and oulv five crimL nals for every 10,000, Aud iu this Columbiau year the four-hundredth of our American life the Congress of the nation has decreed that we shall have a World's Fair aud the President ha?, by the au thority of Congress announced that : "Friday October 21st, 1892, the 400th anniversary of the discov ery of America by Columbus, shall be a general Holiday for tho people f the United States. On that day lot tho people, 6o far as possible, cease from toil and devote them selves to such exercises aa may bea. express houor to the discoverer and their appreciation of the great achievements ot the four completed ceuturies of American life. Column bus stood iu his age as the pioneer of progress and enlightenmeut. The system of universal education is in our age the most prominent and salutary feature of the spirit of en lightenment, and it is peculiarly ap propriate that the schools be made by the people the center of the day's demonstrations. Let the national ll.ig float over every school house in tho country, aud the exercises be such as shall impress upon our youth tho patriotic duties of Amer ican citizens. In the churohes aud tber places of assembly let the peo ple express gratitude to Divine Providence for tho devout faith of the discoverer and for the divine cire aud guid&ncri which has direct od our history aud so abuudautly olesned our people. To the people of Liucolu county the appeal is made to give this matter kind and timely attention. Good men have been appointed in every School District to manage the schools, and the Couuty Board, haviug entrust ed them with this important inter 1st, most respectfully urges them to c orperato in an effort to have all tUo schools opeu iu October this year, in order that all tho children may be reached by the patriotic demoustratious ot the 21st of Octo ber the 400th Centennial day. J it possible to st:" the hearts of the people! In bshalf of the youth of our o mtuy, I do appeal to every parent pad public school commit teeman to take hold of tlr's matter and put our young people forward in this movement. And I most tiarncotly iuv:te all our cit'zens to help in an effort to sigaalizs that day by appropriata exercises in the Piedmont Seminary at Ivncolntou Give as your bast thought and timely suggestions. The latere is for the youug and let us all help them to make our couuty aud town big enoujjU for their development. R. Z. J, Judge Joseph J. Davie Ieail. IU LEIGH, N. O, Aug. 8. Asso ciate Justice Joseph J Davis, of the Supreme Court, died last uight at his homa at Liuisburg. The news reached here this ruorniug. The Mags on the capitol were half-masted. The entrance to the Supreme Court buildiug, the door to the court room aud the chair in which Judge Davis sat were draped in mourning. His death was not uu- expected. For two or three years, since his first attack cf pdialycif, he had beeu very feeble and had been able to do very little work. Daiing the two last terms he was not ou the bench. Six weeks ago he was taken to Morehead City in the hope that the air would benitit hirr, but returned nuimproved. He was greatly esteemed, as a gallant cap tan iu Gen. Scales' brigade, as the representative five years of this congressional district aud as a jus tice of the court since 188G. His funeral will be held toMuonow morning at Louisburg, aud will be attended by the members aud offi cers cf the court and several State officers. A special train will run. Tlie Third Party aud the Force Bill. Tnere is au organ'zed attempt up on tho part ot the leaders of the Third party to pooh-pooh the Force bill aud pietend that there is no danger of its passage. We do not doubt that some of them are honest in their beleif, but we submit that no thoughtful unprejudiced man oau read the Republican platfoim, the utterance of the president and other leading Republicans, and the editorials in Republican newspapers without being convinced that it is the determination of that party to enact that measure iuto a law if they succeed in November, This is not a Democratic opinion. It is the declared purpose ot the Repub lican party and it will not hesitate to carry it into fuU effect when it has the power. The Third party is as deeplv in terested in the defeat of this meas ure as the Democratic party. Is realizes that a Force bill would pre vent even a cnauce to secure reform legislation for the next quarter een tury. At the Third party conven tion at Omaha a resolution against the Force bill was adopted. Self preservation compels them to take this position. Wise action would have compelled the adoptiou of a resolution after this order, but this would not have pleased General I WlEAYKB: Rrmhv.L That nntil th uiii is eneeuiauy Kiueu, we will fight with the Democratic party in its praiseworthy aud patriotic efiort to prevent this monstrous legislat tion in or Jer to prevent continued and fraudulent Republican ascendency, which ascendency icould pror "l " fl to all reform measures. ). This would have been .J. .uj safe course to pursue but that con veutiou wanted a now party and was determined to have it. But, while it did not pass such a resolu tion, the danger and fears of the Force bill were apparent, and tbey declared in effect that they stood with tho Democrats upon this im portant position. In velv of this declaration against the Forco bill, wo do not understand how their candidate for Vice-President can say, referiug to tho Force bill : 'Oh, that's nothing ! A bugbear, A mere skeleton to frighteu the peo ple not worthy ot consideration ! Either the Omaha Convention stultified itself in declaring against tho passage of the Force bill, or Gen. Field is playing a game of bluff. The Omaha Convention knew and felt the danger of the Force oill aud declared against it. If there was uo danger of its pas sage, the convention did a silly and foolish piece of business iu saying anything about it; Tho ouly way not to oonvict the convention of id iotic folly is to admit the evils of hat bill, aud the fact that if the Republicans win, it wilt become a law. We do not agree with all the action of th Omaha convention, but we are unwilling to believe the delegates were such driveiliug idiots and stupid fools as to - cum ber their platform with resolutions against "a tueie skeleton to night teu the people not worthy of con side.ation." No; they know, the Force bill is a menace to them and to the country, and knowing this made declaration against it. North Carolinian- Job Press for Sale.

He says: "I was feeling sick and tired and my stomach seemed all out of order. I tried a nuniher of remedies, hut none seemed to give me relief until I was in duced to try the old reliable Ayer'a Pills. I have taken only one box, but I feel like a new man. I think they are the most pleasant and easy to take ot anything 1 ever used, being so finely sugar-coated that even a child will take them. I urge upon all who are In (Meed of a laxative to try Ayer'a Pilla." Boothbay (Me.), Register. "Between the ages of five and fifteen, I was troubled with a kind of salt rheum, or eruption, chierly confined to the legs, aud especially to the bend of the knee above the calf. Here, running sores formed which would scab over, but would break immediately on mov ing the leg. My mother tried every thing she could think of, but all (waa without avail. Although a child, I read in tbe papers aNmt tho beneficial effects of Ayer'a Pills, and persuaded my moth er to let me try them. With uo great faith in the result, she procured Ayer's Pills and I began to use them, and soon noticed an improvement. Eucouraged by this, I kept on till I took two boxes, when the sores disappeared and have never troubled me since." If. Chipman, Ileal Estate Agent, Koauoke, Va. "I suffered for years from stomach aud kidney troubles, causing very severe pains in various parts of the body.
